https://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/7090-best-extraction-method-for-a-weak-stomach#33763
So the first method is basically what I'm doing but I don't always freeze it (to be honest I'm not sure how much the acid even helps, but it can't hurt and personally I think it helps the flavor).

The second idea is interesting because a tincture would be nice. The problem is it seems like there are 2 choices. Alcohol which is most probably going to irritate my stomach. Then there's some vegetable oil that you can use but they say you need a lot. I can't even eat a lot of coconut oil at once because it messes up my stomach so I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to do a tincture.

I guess the tea may be the best method. Has anyone tried to boil down the tea into a smaller amount? Do you lose a lot by doing that?]]>Plain Leaf KratomSat, 05 Jan 2019 10:08:12 +0000Best Kratom for pain - by: Plathianhttps://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/5505-best-kratom-for-pain?start=10#33478

I would worry more about coming back into this country, the former "Land of the Free", but worrying really does no good.

For going into Brazil, if they ask, I'd just tell them it's a tea you take for your health. Stress that it's for personal use only. Tell them the botanical name.

You need to remind yourself that you're doing nothing wrong. Relax. Brazil is a nation that loves to party, so I doubt they take any herb as a big concern. You might ask their consulate what Brazil's policy is on marijuana to get an idea how they MIGHT consider kratom.

It is best to purchase the freshest and purest form pf triphala, as many can have less than desirable additives.
A good Triphala can be consumed daily. At first, it works directly on the colon. Eventually, it has been shown to detox at the cellular level.

https://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/5032-most-underrated-strains#25175Indo Maeng Da has been my go to for a while now ...I like to cover all my bases!

We have to recognize that there is no standardization in labeling strains too, so what one vendor calls Indo Maeng Da might be called something else from another vendor. I mean it might be the exact same plant but grown in a different area or country, so a different name.

Red, Green, or White are strains, ie genetic variants...the other labels are just for branding. A red strain grown under different conditions will have the same genetic material as other red strains BUT will have different concentrations of alkaloids because of differences in climate and soil conditions.

Find what works for you...then stick with that.

On further research I found this bit of info regarding the term strain:

"The term has no official ranking status in botany; the term refers to the collective descendants produced from a common ancestor that share a uniform morphological or physiological character.[1] A strain is a designated group of offspring that are either descended from a modified plant (produced by conventional breeding or by biotechnological means), or which result from genetic mutation."

You are right...While chemical dependence with Kratom is possible, the addiction potential is very low. Even the scientists have said that Kratom withdrawal is mild and akin to withdrawal from caffeine.

https://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/4773-red-dragon-info#23397
Being relatively new in the market, Red Dragon Kratom has received a lot of appreciation, particularly for its effects to bring tranquility and calmness to life.

It considered among the best strains to enhance the senses and energizes the body to have a new outlook on life.

What is Red Dragon Kratom?
The name Red Dragon Kratom is indicative of the strain’s leaves that have a reddish hue. This Kratom species is said to possess pain relieving and stress reducing properties incorporated in its natural chemical composition.

Red leaves of Dragon Kratom are also known to stimulate the brain and enhance mental concentration. This makes a person more wakeful and alert.

As mentioned before, Red Dragon Kratom mirrors the effects produced by Red Thai Kratom. This resemblance is so high that some users even report no difference in the results provided by either of these strains.

Red Dragon Kratom is also known to mimic the effects of caffeine, making the brain to drift off or make it more heedful.

The strain has potent medicinal properties, setting the bar for the best Kratom strain at a reasonably high level

Origin of Red Dragon Kratom
The strain of Red Dragon Kratom is mysterious, and no exact information is available about its origin.

Some of the sources say that this strain comes from an exclusive type of Mitragyna speciosa tree that grows in the deepest jungles of South East Asia.

The leaves are picked from the most mature plantation of Mitragyna growing in areas like Thailand and Malaysia.

The climate and the soil condition of these areas work together to produce one of the most exquisite forms of Kratom.

The weather conditions and the soil fertility are also responsible for the high alkaloid content in Red Dragon Kratom.

This strengthens its ability to produce therapeutic effects and makes it one of the most potent strains of Kratom.

What are the effects of Red Dragon Kratom?
Red Dragon Kratom is useful for keeping the users upbeat and maintaining health. Owing to its high alkaloid content, this strain can successfully produce the following effects on the body:

Renewal of energy
Red Dragon Kratom is reliable for those who observe a lazy lifestyle and require a boost of energy.

This strain will work its best to maximize the physical strength, enhance the mental alertness, and useful for muscle relaxation.

Red leaves of Dragon Kratom work like coffee to stimulate the brain and generate cerebral energy. This will clear the mind and induce vitality.

For those who already observe a healthy lifestyle, this strain might be useful at the midday when the energy levels are down.

Using Red Dragon Kratom will provide sufficient amount of energy to keep going through the day.

Stress control
Red Dragon Kratom is also famous for its anti-depression effects on the mind. It supports a positive attitude by calming the nerves and getting rid of stressful thoughts.

The strain can also release mental tensions and reduce nervousness, leading to a better and optimistic life.

Additionally, it can even relieve anxiety attacks and increases the ease of managing social interactions.

Analgesic effect
Because Red dragon Kratom has a higher concentration of alkaloids, it can actively work within the body to get rid of pains.

It is an excellent alternative to the conventional painkillers that may cause damage to the body.

Red Dragon Kratom has a high concentration of Mitragynine, an alkaloid that works just like an opioid.

It activates mu-opioid receptors in the brain and relieves both acute and chronic pain. Its applications include migraines, vascular pains, pain due to arthritis and muscle aches.

Sedative property
Red Dragon Kratom provides favorable effects to reduce the trouble faced while sleeping. It shits off the brain just before going to sleep and puts it in a restful state.

Moreover, it also produces physical relaxation that further aids through the transition to sleep.

This strain is better than the standard prescription drugs for insomnia as it is natural and does not produce any side effects.

Additionally, Red Dragon Kratom induces a peaceful sleep and helps the body to revitalize itself for the next day.

How much Red Dragon Kratom to take?
To obtain maximum effects from Red Dragon Kratom, it is important to follow the accurate dosage. The dosage of this strain varies from person to person and mostly depends on the reason why they are using it.

For example, if treatment of pain requires high doses and if the strain is not taken sufficiently, the pain and soreness might still exist.

Mentioned below are the accurate dose regimens to follow to use Red Dragon Kratom for various purposes.

Dose of high energy
To enhance focus and increase the physical energy, 2 grams of Red Dragon Kratom will be sufficient. The effects can slightly vary from one user to another by their metabolic speed.

However, it is essential to start with 2 grams and gradually move to higher doses. This will provide enough time to the body to make adjustments and prevent the development of side effects.

Dose for stress relief
Those who wish to use Red leaves of Dragon Kratom for stress relief or anxiety attacks, the starting dose must be around 6 grams.

The dose can then be increased slowly according to the severity of stress and intensity of the anxiety attacks.

The strain starts producing sedation as soon as it is ingested. So, do not consume it in a high dose during times when the body needs to be alert.

Dose for pain alleviation
While using Red Dragon Kratom for alleviating pain, the quantity of this strain taken in a single dose must be higher than 6 grams.

It will produce a high level of drowsiness, but at the same time, it will provide relief from body aches and neuropathic pain.

Dose for treating insomnia
For obtaining best results to treat insomnia and other sleep-related problems, take Red Dragon Kratom in a dose of 4 to 5 grams. It is best to take this strain only a few hours before going to bed.

However, for high strung users, it should be consumed during daytime to get complete results by bedtime. Remember that Red Dragon Kratom is not a replacement for a sleeping aid.

It exerts organic effects on the body that can calm down the body and release the mental tension, making it easier for the users to fall asleep.

Are there any side effects?
Red Dragon Kratom is safe to use as it comes from a naturally growing tree. The only side effects that are likely to occur are mild and include nausea, vomiting, sweating, and constipation.

The prevalence of these very mild side effects can also be controlled by sticking to the right dosing scheme and avoiding over-dosage.

User reviews about Red Dragon Kratom
Users seem to be extremely happy with the performance regarding Red Dragon Kratom. One of them explained how this strain proved to be extraordinarily sedating and was perfect for relaxing the body.

The user started to experience the effects in only 30 minutes of consumption. Red Dragon Kratom also provided him relief from anxiety at the same time.

Another user has related how Red Dragon Kratom makes his life better without getting him high. He called it as a “better version of coffee” that provides energy without exerting any adverse effects at the same time.

One of the Kratom users has mentioned this strain as his favorite daytime Kratom. He has shared his experience in which he observed the results in 25 minutes and experienced a decent level of mood lift after using Red Dragon Kratom.

The final verdict
In conclusion, Red Dragon Kratom can be regarded as a beneficial strain of Kratom that produces a lot of benefits while minimizing the chances of side effects.

This strain can change the life of people in different ways, for example, providing extra energy and mental clarity to accomplish tasks in a better way.

It is also a source of additional nutrients for the body and will keep it in a healthy state on a daily basis.

White, green, red and yellow varieties are all possible in various strains. For instance, Maeng da has all these color variations leading to slightly differing effects at similar dosages. Red and yellow variations are more sedating whereas, white and green are more energy producing or stimulating. The analgesic effects of kratom in general come from the alkaloids: Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. There are also various other alkaloids that range in concentration between the strains and varieties. It is this variation in alkaloids that is responsible for the slightly differing pharmacodynamics between strains and varieties.

Location vs. Strains
A lot of kratom strains stand-out such as Maeng Da and Super Green Malay. Other strains are identified by their locations. For instance, Borneo is a separate island and strain yet Kalimantan is located on the same island but identified as a different strain. This is where some of the distinctions become a little foggy. With this said, location can make a difference as Bali and Borneo do have a slightly different effects. Kratom is very sensitive to environmental factors and even the slightest in environmental chnage between Indonesian islands and provinces can make a difference.

1. Maeng Da
Maeng Da is a one of the most popular types of kratom. This strain literally means “Pimp” in Thai language. It is believed that this strain has been created through selective breeding techniques. This type of kratom comes in: white, green, red and yellow varieties. Across all the different varieties, white and green are the most popular. Maeng da is popular in these variations because it gives some powerful mood-boosting and energy-boosting effects while also offering an analgesic effect. Maeng da also comes in rare “horned leaf” varieties which are identified by the oddly shaped leaves.

2. Borneo
Next to Maeng Da, Borneo is probably the most popular type of kratom strain. Borneo is the largest Island in Asia that shares part of Indonesia and Malaysia. A large portion of kratom comes from this island. Kratom from Borneo comes in each of the 4 strain colors: and green and red borneo seem to be the most popular.

3. Bali
Bali is an island province located within Indonesia. It is much smaller than Borneo and located on the other side of the Java Sea. This type of kratom is often confused with Borneo kratom which is more popular. Bali comes in: white, green and red bali with green and red being the most popular variations.

4. Indo
Indonesian or “Indo” kratom is another strain that refers to a variety of kratom that grows throughout Indonesia including parts of Bali & Borneo. Indo kratom is known for “White Indo” which is a popular and strong type of white stimulating strain. Indo also comes in green and red variations. Red indo is also popular but not as much so as Red Borneo.

5. Malaysian
Malaysian is another type of strain that is identified by the location grown. Most Malaysian strains are not as popular as the types grown in Indonesia because it is illegal in the country. One of the most well-known Malaysian variations/strains is: “Super Green Malay” which is known for its bright green appearance and powerful mood-boosting, energetic effects. It is believed that Super Green is actually its own strain and grows throughout Indonesia like the Indo strain. Malaysian strains come in the 4 different color varieties also.

6. Thai
Thai is one of the less popular types of kratom. This is likely due to the fact that kratom is illegal in Thailand. Thai kratom comes in each of the 4 color varieties. Most Thai labelled kratom likely comes from Indonesia.

7. Sumatra
Sumarta is a western island located within Indonesia. It is bigger than Bali but this type of kratom is slightly less well-known. Kratom varieties grown in this province are known as “Sumatran”. This type of kratom is starting to become more popular and available. It comes in each of the 4 color variations.

8. Kalimantan
Kalimantan is a province located in Borneo. It is often used to describe a different strain but the difference it has between Borneo is not well-known. Vendors sell this type of kratom in 4 different variations.

9. Bentuangie
Bentuangie is a type of kratom fermented in a bag instead of the usual drying process with other types of kratom. The fermentation process is said to give this strain a unique flavor and a enhanced alkaloid percentage. Bentuangie is a rarer strain however, it is starting to become more popular. There are many larger vendors who are starting to carry is but (real) Bentuangie can be slightly more costly than other typical strains.]]>Plain Leaf KratomTue, 12 Dec 2017 09:58:07 +0000Green Sumatra Info - by: gmanthemanhttps://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/4748-green-sumatra-info#23312

So greens, I'm enamoured with Green Indo. Overall I really like greens, but I had the best experience so far on Green indo. I tried Green Borneo a few days after that and, for me, it's just not as good as the Green Indo.

Whites, I really enjoyed the White Horn. It's was very good. With White Indo as a tight second.

Reds, I had the chance to try a Chocolate Borneo, which I read is actually a red, and it was amazing... Definitely a late evening one for sure. AND a bentuangie I also really enjoyed. As far as ones that are labeled red... I'm still tinkering, I've made the mistake a couple of times to try a red early on in the day and it was just waaaay too euphoric and sedating for a workday, whew. But I have a history of suffering from back spasms, so I am sure I'll be putting some reds to the test then.

Hill Country said they got a drastic increase in business after Menthol's review. I think that will help greatly.

I tried WVI from a facebook vendor called The Therapy Store. It was uplifting without too much anxiety. For $4 pe oz, it's a great deal.]]>Plain Leaf KratomThu, 30 Jun 2016 03:27:06 +0000Importance of dosing - by: Oldmanhttps://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/3024-importance-of-dosing?start=10#12960

If you take a low dose and get energy and motivation and try to add a little more for more energy you wind up passing the energizing effect and get sleepy and relaxed from my experience. You cant really add to the energizing effect i have found. So my suggestion to your dose for energy would be smaller amounts than your normal dose if you are not getting any energy and are using an energizing strain. The whites tend to be more energetic. But again this is with the small dose if you take a large dose of white you will still get sedation. Or at least i do.]]>Plain Leaf KratomSat, 25 Jun 2016 01:26:07 +0000HB&M Shipment Came In Today!

Just an update on my experimenting so far.

Naturally and with excitement I went for this to try first and was very surprised by the smell and taste. Like the plantation burned down and they didn't want to waist the Kratom ash lol! A Forrest fire in your mouth..Anyway I did the old Google search and nothing and started a Reddit thread to see if anyone has info on what exactly this is. So maybe someone here has some info? I emailed my exporter and he said its fermented. I then asked why? He said for taste it takes away the bitterness..lol needless to say we share different opinions to the taste. Effect wise I'm not getting anything, yet I know it does something as I would feel this as well. Almost seems like a stem and vein. Anyone had experience with this stuff or any info on it? Someone also suggested that this is supposed to be used like chewing tobacco and is popular to the part of Indo I recieve leaf from. In the pics a red horn which is dark is left, a chocolate in the middle, and black on right.

I read about black Kratom on PharmacyDropOut, under the strain coffee...its on the first page of his botanicals section in the description. It says its a failed attempt to dry properly that turns it black.]]>Plain Leaf KratomWed, 02 Dec 2015 07:36:02 +0000Green Vietnam or White Thai from HB&M - by: KrayKrayhttps://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/1806-green-vietnam-or-white-thai-from-hb-m#6291

Burn is slight...not overwhelming and not in your face at all. Despite this I am optimistic about this strain because of the lack of overwhelming or edgyness that can accompany some strains such as for me mang da. With strains that do not have that edginess I have in the past been able to increase the amount and in turn the effect without getting the wobbles.

Anyways...more on this burn not future burns...

Uplifted, slight tingles, buzzing in the brain, a bit relaxing while still slightly energizing.

Overall an interesting strain for a first burn of the day, it's no heavy hitter despite it's look and smell but perhaps will yield great results if only increased a tad.

Not to mention....mixing this strain could be very good. (Maybe lessening the in your face anxiousness that accompany some strains)]]>Plain Leaf KratomSat, 25 Apr 2015 22:46:30 +0000Classic Bali - by: leggomyeggohttps://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/1484-classic-bali?start=10#2616

It (for me) is more chill than Vietnam. I prefer Vietnam more than maeng da's. I do like a nice Bali for relaxation though (to stick to topic) It just sometimes does not work for me for some reason. It is a touch and go or a gamble that I will actually have a reaction from it at all?

For me bali is the same way and often either gave me nothing or gave me a headache. But....when classic bali has been good...it's been REAllY good and not really like all of the other bali's.

Miss Plum sells a product called "white bali" which is comparable though more energetic and less u4ic. Going to try tropical thai first today and will post my first review on that and come back to the classic bali.]]>Plain Leaf KratomSat, 25 Apr 2015 20:20:45 +0000PC Bali - by: bryanb35https://www.ilovekratom.com/forum/plain-leaf-kratom/1118-pc-bali#1574
